What Causes Severe Headaches After Brain Surgery To Alleviate Trigeminal Neuralgia?

I had brain surgery on December 5 to alleviate trigeminal neuralgia. The operation was a success but I have had excruciating headaches daily since then. At first it was like the top of my head was going to blow off but now the pain is on my right forehead generally in the evenings and during the night. During the day I can go without pain pills but I am averaging two or three daily.fiorecet. Is this a swap for the trigeminal pain or when might this pain cease? The neurosurgeon says I am recovering slowly. He put a rtelfon sponge between my nreve and the bloood vessel.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the neurosurgery always painful in post surgical phase but this is comes around as the internal operated structure healed, to subside the pain of post neurosurgery the best combination drug would be "Acetaminophen + diazepam once in day if does not give result then have it twice a day, have nice time.
